August is here! Some say these are the dog days of summer, we say they are the sparkly days of summer swank! You lucky August ladies get to celebrate your month with the rich green shades of peridot. We LOVE this stone for its beautiful bright color, and also its mystery. This is a stone that is formed deep within the earth and brought to the surface by volcanoes. It just doesn't get much cooler than that! So celebrate your birthday month with a lively new piece of peridot jewelry - what's not to love?!

Anne Sportun's peridot wrap bracelet is a fun, light way to wear your birth stone around day or night! This bracelet can also be worn long as a necklace...imagine the possibilities!

Unique. Everyday. Sweet. Gabriella Kiss chooses stones like no other - make this inverted peridot stack ring your extra special birthday present! (Psst, it would look totally fabulous stacked with this next peridot ring by Gabriella for twice the birthday fun!)

Gabriella Kiss' signature scalloped bezel showcases this bright peridot cabochon like a spotlight! We are in total awe of this stone with its beaming color and fascinating natural inclusions. Make every day your birthday with this ring!!

Why not jazz it up this birthday with a mix of other stones?! There is no better way to do this than with Reinstein/Ross' hoop and drop design. Just choose the style hoops you love and start mixing and matching stone drops to liven up a simple earring of sophisticated proportions. We just adore this combination of large faceted blue topaz, pink freshwater pearl and peridot rondelles. (Also available in 22K yellow or apricot gold!) Create your own myriad of gorgeous stone arrangements!

Talk about mixing and matching stones...this Mixed Bead Wrap necklace by Rosanne Pugliese is the ultimate summer necklace! Turquoise, iolite and peridot all in one! What else could a birthday girl ask for?! This handmade necklace is a sure way to celebrate your birthday in quintessential summer style!

"Peridot is said to host magical powers and healing properties and bring the wearer power, influence, and a wonderful year." -American Gem Society
Happy Birthday August!

Peridot is
said to host magical powers and healing properties to protect against
nightmares and to bring the wearer power, influence, and a wonderful
year. As peridot is a gemstone that forms deep inside the Earth and
brought to the surface by volcanoes, in Hawaii, peridot symbolizes the
tears of Pele, the goddess of fire and volcanoes. Today, most of the
peridot supply comes from Arizona; other sources are China, Myanmar, and
Pakistan. This gemstone comes in several color variations ranging from
yellowish green to brown, but most consumers are attracted to the
bright lime greens and olive greens. Peridot, in smaller sizes, often
is used in beaded necklaces and bracelets. - See more at:
